Lib problem after last update

skeeter · 2006-09-13 00:39:02

Updated Arch64 system yesterday and could not run lilo (which was updated). Error "libdevmapper.so.1.02 cannot open shared object file; no such file or directory". I'm sure I can rescue boot back in with my AL64 CD but where would I get this file? This is a new one for me, anybody got any ideas what might be causing the problem and a possible fix would be greatly appreciated.

device-mapper or compile it with makepkg.

Thanks for the input espo! I'm at work right now but I'll try this later tonite and post the results.

SOLVED!!! Thanks again espo! Reinstalled device-mapper (wasn't listed on my system) and ran lilo w/o any problems. I don't understand what would have wiped that off my system but then I'm not certain it was on there to begin with. :shock:

I had the same problem, seems like a missing dependency in the new lilo pkg.

Thanks.

have you allready told this to the mantainer of the pkg?
